Any person who believes that ownership of a camera marketed as 'semi pro' means that they're a [photographer]. Examples are usually found elbowing their way to the front of the press pit at concerts, having spun the press office a bullshit tale about them "shooting for a website". Invariably they're students or people who work in IT. I actually coined this term circa 2001 on a British [professional] photographer's forum - it might have been on f8andbethere.org - and it's subsequently been stolen by any number of togs who claimed to have been the originator of the term. More recently, it's been coopted as fauxtograph and fauxtography, meaning the deceptive use of visual media to illustrate a story. Personally [I don't think] that makes sense, and certainly isn't how it was first used fifteen years ago.
